Impoverishment Kyjeva

such a financial collapse, as now, Kiev is not worried …

such a financial collapse, as now, Kiev has not yet experienced: a hole in the city budget a 40%-something - like “success” is not done even replacing each one after the other power teams of the capital at the beginning of Ukrainian independence!

the first time in modern history of the city of Kiev city government de facto signed for its financial insolvency.

Capital budget for 2009 died as was born - in short supply. The latter, for the year, the report of the Chief Financial Management KCSA speaks for itself - 7,7 billion hryvnia underperformance on income and six billion hryvnia - Cost. And this despite the strained efforts of capital financiers somehow by the end of the year darn huge budget hole!

And, most pungently: these “outstanding performance” in the story became vaunted team of financiers led by successful, as he himself doth, banker and businessman Leonid Chernovetsky.

Recall that the capital budget for 2009, after all the additions and refinements, was supposed to be filled by 19,6 billion UAH. Took him as much in March 2009, when the raging crisis in full swing already, and knew all the performance indicators of previous years. So, despite the fact that income to the city treasury in the 2008th were narrowly missed at 16,3% in the planned income of 20.3 billion UAH. And many MPs from, say so disloyal to the mayor and the majority of the group warned that the budget should not be taken almost at the level of 2008, the main financial document was nevertheless adopted the way it has issued a GU Finance and supported by all hands promerskoe majority.

That is, the financial collapse was founded initially! Do we understand? It is - still questionable, though an honest answer to it would help to draw a conclusion about the qualifications of those who undertook to lead the city … However, based on the financial results of the year, we can say that, with realistic projections for capital financiers - the problem. Even at the session, when negotiated and adopted the budget-2009, and the standing committees of city council, and in many commentaries urban deputies said that it is impossible to fill the budget even at the level of performance of last year”s budget when the window - the financial crisis, a real reduction of working places, freeze, etc etc. And since nearly 80% of the content of the budget is financed by taxes on wages and salaries, of course, when a crisis situation, no way could significantly increase, then the question arises, how could undertake the planned content of the budget? Here it is, and “not taken”! Average salary in December 2008, was in Kiev, according to the capital PG Labor and Employment, 3549 UAH., And in December 2009, according to the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine - 3684 grn. That is, the increase - only 135 UAH! This is 3-4 times less than in the past, not the crisis years. For example, for 2008, compared with the 2007th, the average salary rose from Kiev almost a thousand hryvnia! But even in this case, the budget, bloated in the plans of 21 billion UAH. Has not been fully implemented (see above), and that is to say about the year 2009 announced!

So, once again, it should be recognized: the excessive optimism of the mayor and his team humiliated. And if you remember much at all “space” plans Chernovetsky articulated by him at the end of 2008 - to bring the budget in Kiev in 2009 to … $ 70 billion, it is sad at all of these “forecasters”.

But back to our current realities.

Here, for example, completely unrealistic, it turned out, were plans for a metropolitan government for income tax of individuals: as a result of up to 12 months, narrowly missed the article on the 1,323 billion UAH.

was a total failure and the administration”s plans to receive income from an opaque source under the “expansive” designation - the “other income”. Recall that for these hidden vaunted so-called “Mayor”s 50 programs, each of which was to bring the budget in Kiev … billion hryvnia. These included not only higher prices for travel in public transport and tariffs for housing services, only to unbalance the situation, but the introduction of fees for entrance to the city, for admission /entry to the cemetery … and taxes paid on business lunches with city officials, and from auctions of official vehicles, and taxes on intercoms, air conditioners and satellite dishes, the luxury, after all - also in this series! However, the scheduling of this article, 2.8 billion, have received little more than 6 million … (only 0,2% of desired). For the vast majority of these phantasmagoric payments to local budgets simply do not fit into any laws, but more associated with taxes, invented … Signor tomatoes from famous fairy tale about Gianni Rodari Чипполино. Remember - in the rain, on the air?

and charges for land in 2009 and was not collected in full. In this article, received less capital budget of almost 382 million UAH. And revenue from the sale of land and intangible assets reached all … 25,5% of the target. This situation is viewed in the early years, but then the command action is not bothered to make their plans more realistic.

As a result - a disastrous underfunding of the city budget virtually all industries and urban areas has become a defining feature of the functioning of the capital in 2009.

Urban Education, for example, received less 44,3 mln., health care - 229 million, social protection and social security - do as much 818,7 million UAH., that is, almost half of the planned funding.

housing and communal sphere has been under-funded at 544 million, and transportation and road-building on 93.6. It is easy to guess that here lies the root of the critical situation facing the city in the past month - from Kiev to clear snow and ice just not find the money! And, jumping ahead, you can almost predict with certainty that they will not. So you can set to continue, dear people of Kiev, on uncleared streets and yards and … wait for the thaw. However, then there is another problem. The city simply drown in the spring waters, and officials have to remember that the city”s sewage system - still one of the many urban industries, on the verge of collapse.

on the development of housing and utilities sector in 2009 was 851.7 million provided for 12 months for this purpose was spent only 42,9%! That is, on any long-term repair of municipal sewers and can not speak.

What did suggest all these “under-funded” and “shortfall”? Yes about the same, as mentioned at the beginning of the year.

City authorities to demonstrate their fiscal incompetence and inability to act in a crisis situation. Instead of clearly identified priority areas of funding, such as: housing and utilities, transportation, social sphere - the team has focused on luring the mayor of Kiev additional taxes and notorious deribane metropolitan land. And if unrealizability first (space taxes and charges) was evident even at the stage of discussion, the main financial document of the capital, the second (division of land) has been successfully introduced throughout the year. However, the results of this “division” for some reason (?) And not contributing to filling the coffers of the budget and avoid a default. So the question - Where did the money from the sale and lease of land? - Remains open. Most likely, indifferent to the fate of his deputies of Kyiv and just ask themselves that question at the first session in the new year, city council, to be held exactly one week later, on Feb. 4, 2010.

Well, currently the city is living, that is, on overdue receipts. In the sense that, until the approval of the budget-2010, fully funded only protected articles - payment of salaries for state. Given the election turmoil and the lengthy process of approving the state budget-2010 (but without him, under the law, not to go, and local, including Kiev), capital in its coffers will be determined at best to … the late spring.

And here again want to recall the opposition. One of the leaders of the Bloc Vitali Klitschko COALITION Dmitry Andrievsky has already stated that the budget-2010 can not exceed 14 billion UAH.: “Next year will be very difficult. And here it is necessary to make informed and professional decision. The real budget is, by my count, not will not exceed 12-14 billion hryvnia. It is very important to clearly define the priorities and to concentrate all available forces to carry them out. ”

BYuTovets Sergey Melnik, a member of the Ways and Means Committee city council, said that the performance indicators of the budget in Kiev in 2009 one of the worst in modern history of Kiev. Moreover, even in comparison with those of other regions of Ukraine, hopes that in 2010 “will not be worse, because the worse is simply nowhere!”

However, it seems that the power and made certain conclusions. The first deputy chairman of the KCSA Anatoly Golubchenko told the press that, although there can speak only of indicative terms of the capital budget-2010, but he knows that the budget is projected at “about 14 billion UAH., 6.5 billion of them will go to the State Budget . Those figures are voiced by the latter in the past year plenary meeting, city council head of finance capital PG Viktor Padalka, while complaining that a lot of money has to allocate to the State budget … in 2009, remember, contributions to the state budget amounted to 7,5 billion UAH. and have been a byword - mayoral team, especially Block Chernovetsky and “Regions” is just such a large withdrawal, or “gift from the people of Kiev Tymoshenko, tend to explain the financial problems with which Kiev has faced and was never able to overcome them …

I”m glad in this situation, except one thing: with all parties, we now hear the optimistic predictions that the 2010th will begin an econoc07mic recovery in the country and in Kiev, and, therefore, just from the capital, where the recovery will be particularly noticeable, will and financial renaissance. The most optimistic forecasts for the capital - a real budget of 16-17 billion UAH.
